Village of Frankfort Meeting | November 17, 2025

Article Summary: The Frankfort Village Board on Monday, November 17, 2025, formally adopted a new meeting schedule for 2026, which moves the start time for its regular board meetings an hour earlier to 6:00 p.m. and realigns its Committee of the Whole meetings to improve efficiency.

2026 Meeting Schedule Key Points:

  • New Start Time: Regular Village Board meetings will now begin at 6:00 p.m., changed from the previous 7:00 p.m. start time.

  • Committee Alignment: Committee of the Whole meetings will convene immediately following the first Village Board meeting of each month, moving from their previous schedule on the second Wednesday.

  • Holiday Adjustments: The board will hold only a single meeting on the second Monday of January, July, and September to accommodate holidays.

FRANKFORT, IL – Frankfort residents who attend or watch Village Board proceedings will need to adjust their calendars in 2026, as trustees on Monday, November 17, 2025, approved changes to the board’s regular meeting schedule and start time.

Beginning in 2026, regular meetings of the Village Board will commence at 6:00 p.m., an hour earlier than the current 7:00 p.m. start time. The board typically meets on the first and third Mondays of each month.

In addition, the village’s Committee of the Whole meetings will be rescheduled. Instead of being held on the second Wednesday of the month, the committee will now convene immediately following the conclusion of the first regular Village Board meeting of each month. This change is intended to streamline the village’s legislative process.

The newly adopted calendar also accounts for holidays. In January, July, and September, the board will cancel its first meeting of the month and hold a single consolidated meeting on the second Monday. The full 2026 meeting and holiday calendar was approved as part of the board’s unanimous consent agenda
